In March 1963, a black mass was held in the ruined church at Clophill. Tombs were looted, animals sacrificed and human bones arranged as grotesque furniture during a macabre ceremony. Fifty years on, further defilements continue and reports of necromancy and sightings of ghosts are common. The local populace distance themselves from the ruined gravestones and Clophill’s infamous reputation.
In 2010, a documentary crew was assembled to interview the village’s inhabitants, eye witnesses and set up camp in the church ruins overnight in the hope of filming the spiritual unexplained. What followed that long weekend was a terrifying journey into the unknown.
